Rufous Grasshopper (Gomphocerippus rufus)

Oakridge Lynch, near Stroud, Gloucestershire, September 13, 2012

Readily identified by the white-tipped, clubbed antennae, especially noticeable in the male, and a reddish-tipped abdomen. Locally frequent here on steep herb-rich south-west facing calcareous grassland.
